a club that is directly recruiting entire teams from neighboring clubs. it's not just GFR.....


what other clubs?


herndon, loudoun and mclean coaches have all been approached to move teams to rbc


how do you know this


because i'm one of them lol


Are you moving your team or did you tell them to kick rocks?


not moving my team. to be fair, they're offering a great incentive to coaches and families but ultimately these clubs don't do well and the shenanigans are a little too much for me.


What's the sales pitch? Do you have any more tea to spill? Fields? Leagues?


Plan appears to be to play NSCL under Loudoun affiliation. They seem to be trying to get teams to move without their direct involvement -- i.e. having players/families independently submit requests for cards to be transferred. It all seems very shady and like a poorly disguised attempt to avoid any non-competition obligations, etc.

What incentive? Everyone has already paid for a full season with their existing club, so not sure what Riverbend could offer.

Looks kinda like it.
Very unethical if so. And legally fraught.

Ironic given that this was supposedly motivated by purported concerns with ethics, integrity, and conflicts of interest. Now looks like it was just a visceral personal thing all along.


but against who? rs is all but gone from gfr


Yeah, he has a team he is coaching but think he's done after the Spring.

Do you think they'll pull it off and actually be up and running for the spring season?


They might get a few teams. They are offering to take teams and only pay $190 to move from another club. I don't know why anyone would do that unless they are terribly disgruntled with GFR which is kinda weird at this point with the changes in leadership.

And they brought in a TD and ED from 2 other clubs who will likely try to poach from those clubs as well.

This is incorrect as the TD has not been working in any club.
